Tropical Storm Rene Forecast Discussion Number 11

2020-09-09 22:34:28| National Hurricane Center (Atlantic)

Issued at 500 PM AST Wed Sep 09 2020 000 WTNT43 KNHC 092034 TCDAT3 Tropical Storm Rene Discussion Number 11 NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL AL182020 500 PM AST Wed Sep 09 2020 Although the cloud pattern of Rene has changed little in overall organization since earlier today, there are some indications that the easterly shear over the storm has diminished somewhat. Cirrus cloud motions show that upper-level outflow is slightly more evident over the eastern portion of the circulation, but it remains limited over that region. The current intensity estimate remains 35 kt in agreement with a Dvorak estimate from TAFB. Vertical shear is predicted to be modest over Rene during the next couple of days, and this should allow for some strengthening. The official intensity forecast is similar to the model consensus and continues to show the system becoming a hurricane, albeit briefly. After day 3, the western portion of a large upper-level trough over the eastern Atlantic is likely to impart increased shear, which should lead to weakening. Conventional satellite and microwave fixes show a continued west-northwestward motion at about 285/11 kt. Rene is currently located on the southwest side of a mid-level ridge over the eastern Atlantic. A weakness in the ridge in the vicinity of 40W-45W longitude should induce a turn toward the northwest and north-northwest in 3-5 days. By the end of the forecast period, Rene's forward progress begins to be blocked by building mid-level heights to its north and northwest, which should cause the cyclone's forward motion to slow down significantly. The official track forecast has been adjusted farther to the left of the previous one, to be closer to the latest model consensus.

Tropical Storm Paulette Forecast Discussion Number 12

2020-09-09 22:31:58| National Hurricane Center (Atlantic)

Issued at 500 PM AST Wed Sep 09 2020 000 WTNT42 KNHC 092031 TCDAT2 Tropical Storm Paulette Discussion Number 12 NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL AL172020 500 PM AST Wed Sep 09 2020 Paulette's satellite presentation has not changed since this morning, with the center exposed just to the south of the deepest convection. Between this morning's ASCAT pass and the most recent satellite classifications from TAFB and SAB, which are unchanged at T3.0 and T3.5, respectively, the maximum wind estimate remains 50 kt. Paulette continues to move into an area of stronger southwesterly shear, which is now estimated to be 25-30 kt, and this shear is likely to increase further to 30-35 kt within the next 24 hours. As a result, Paulette is expected to begin weakening by Thursday, and the NHC forecast is embedded among the tightly clustered intensity guidance during the first 2-3 days. The shear is expected to relax gradually from 48 hours and beyond and turn out of the southeast, which should allow for some restrengthening on days 3 through 5 when shear magnitudes could go as low as 10 kt. The HWRF and COAMPS-TC models in particular take full advantage of this environment and bring Paulette to hurricane intensity by day 4. The updated NHC intensity forecast is not nearly this aggressive, but it does indicate a little more strengthening at the end of the forecast period than has been shown in previous forecasts, lying closest to the statistical-dynamical guidance. Model environmental trends will be monitored, and additional intensity adjustments at the end of the forecast period will be made accordingly in subsequent forecasts. Paulette remains on a west-northwestward course (295/9 kt), located to the south of low- to mid-level ridging which extends across the central and western Atlantic. The track models suggest that when the cyclone weakens in a day or two, lower-level winds could steer the cyclone westward for a short time. However, a combination of the ridge weakening and Paulette's expected re-strengthening should cause the cyclone to turn northwestward in 2-3 days and maintain that trajectory through the end of the forecast period. The only significant change from the previous forecast is that the 5-day forecast point has been shifted westward, with the GFS, ECMWF, HWRF, and HCCA models all lying on the left side of the guidance envelope by that time.
